German careerist headhunter Juliane Paul, engaged to bureau CEO Kai Lenz, must recruit local engineer Juan Garcia for a Moroccan coast oil project during his home 'finca' holiday on Lanzarote (Canaries), so she goes visit her mother Eva, who runs a pastry bakery there in between environmentalist and naive campaigns. Eva makes her mind the shop but employed baker Diego has a family emergency, so she must find another for a wedding order. Juan, who dropped by to exchange airport-misplaced luggage, generously helps out and gets a crush on her, but she fails to identify herself and disclose her purpose. Private and professional interest seems incompatible, truth time promises to be bitter.
